First impression of Canon 5d

My newCanon 5dis already here! The set contains – Canon 5d, 24-105 L (Image Stability), Canon Speedlite 580II, 2x4GB Compact Flash memory. I had the opportunity to use it for the first time while shooting reportage. I have taken some photos of Bill Hybels, whom you see in the photo. My first impressions about the camera are:

Advantages

- Balanced weight of the body and the lenses – the grip helps for that balancing, as well as the verticaltrigger whichis perfect for vertical shooting

- an easy access to the functions forIso, White balance –I do not need to search for them in the menu, they have been taken outside it with buttons
